Someone with no expectations who you think will make an impact.

Mine is Rashad Lawrence. I can see him overtaking Zach Allen and getting a decent amount of snaps. Really impressive, mature guy.

I think an NFL training regime and coaching will bring the best out of him.

Yes outside of Simmons I see Lawrence and Benjamin Eno contributing from day one
The only issue with Benjamin is his rackless style of playing

For a guy that’s never gone over 1k in a season I’d say that would be a big surprise.
Nah, we would not be surprised in the least. We simply are not sure either way with the guy and will be able to accept with a 'yeah, ok' whether he does not with what we saw in Miami or does with the glimpse of what seems possible from the half of a season with the Cards. People can comment all they want that he was not the starting back at Alabama as a criteria of rating him but that is freaking Alabama and if he played outside of the SEC, I think we can pretty much agree he would have been a great starting back by college standards... let's see, but the outcome from what we have to base our decision is not shocking

Alford, Campbell, Murphy - Ok, possible.
Gilbert's opt=out could be called a surprise, but I say predictable; he's milking it!
Biggest question on your list: Baker; in what way can he surprise? If he plays well, maybe has a better year than last, that's not a surprise it's expected.

I think with Peterson, Alford and a 2nd year Murphy out there, there should be way more opportunities for Baker to make impact plays. I expect a big statistical year from him.

Andy Isabella establishes himself as the #3 and is one of 3 WRs with 1000+ yards. We'll lead the team in TD receptions too.
